点评:Had a brilliant day even with rain most the day. Although the views were obscured with the cloud and mist, I’m glad we went at a quieter time of year.
All of the staff are so friendly and knowledgeable; most notably for us, William from the Victorian tour, The Other Steve from the geological tour (his knowledge is insane and how he gets through naming all those rocks without missing a beat is beyond me) and Abigail, a Victorian lady who gave us such a lot of her time and my 6yo was absolutely thrilled to be talking to her. All the staff from the Victorian era stayed in character fantastically and all staff had such a great sense of humour and all were happy to chat. Another staff member whose name I didn’t catch entertained us in the short wait for the tour and had my daughter in fits of giggles with his ‘musical knees’.
The tours were great and although there’s a warning for loud noise and flashing lights for the show on the geo tour, the volume wasn’t even that of a cinema which we appreciated.
There is a lot of tough uphills to walk, and difficult downhills for that matter, but worth it.
The staff really make the place what it is, including the cashiers and cable car operators, and we would certainly travel the two hours to do it again.
Overall we were there for around 5 hours; Victorian tour, play on the big playground, quick lunch in the cafe, Geological tour, short walk to the lookout spot, chat to Abigail, brief look around the Womble exhibition, marshmallow toasting, more play on the other park, walk up to the tower and back down on the cable car!
翻译:尽管大部分时间都在下雨,但今天依然精彩纷呈。虽然云雾缭绕,景色有些模糊,但我很高兴我们选择在一年中比较安静的时节前往。
所有工作人员都非常友好且知识渊博;尤其让我们印象深刻的是维多利亚时代之旅的威廉,地质之旅的另一位史蒂夫(他的知识简直令人叹为观止,他能毫不费力地说出所有岩石的名字,我简直难以置信),还有一位维多利亚时代的女士阿比盖尔,她花了很多时间陪伴我们,我的六岁女儿和她聊天时兴奋极了。所有维多利亚时代的工作人员都完美地融入了角色,而且都非常幽默风趣,乐于与游客交流。还有一位工作人员,我没记住他的名字,在我们等待导览的短暂时间里,他用“音乐膝盖”逗得我女儿咯咯直笑。
游览体验很棒,虽然地质之旅的演出有噪音和闪光灯的提示,但音量甚至比电影院还小,我们很满意。
有很多陡峭的上坡路要走,下坡路也很艰难,但绝对值得。
工作人员,包括收银员和缆车操作员,都让这里如此出色,我们肯定会再次驱车两小时来这里。
我们总共在那里待了大约5个小时:维多利亚时代之旅、在大型游乐场玩耍、在咖啡馆快速吃午饭、地质之旅、步行到观景台、和阿比盖尔聊天、简单参观沃姆布尔展览、烤棉花糖、在另一个公园继续玩耍、步行上塔,然后乘坐缆车下山!
